No franchise would hesitate to bet on signing Giannis Antetokounmpo... Or would they? Atlanta Hawks has been the franchise with the best chance of securing the Greek player for weeks now. However, they haven't secured his services yet because they are not willing to part ways with their rising star, Jalen Johnson.
Both play the same position, have a similar style, dominate the ball, and seem incompatible. Jalen Johnson can be considered an apprentice of Giannis Antetokounmpo, raising doubts within the Atlanta Hawks management. At 24 years old, Johnson has unlimited potential and a surprising way of evolving. Milwaukee Bucks will demand Johnson in exchange, a deal that Georgia's team is not willing to make.
It is well known that Trae Young would be the preferred bargaining chip for Atlanta Hawks, but the base's status has dropped significantly, and Rollins' emergence has made the Bucks more interested in a different type of player. Many fear that Georgia may become impatient and seek the trade of Giannis Antetokounmpo, even if it means parting ways with Jalen Johnson. However, others believe that the doubts will ultimately lead them to fully support their player.
